The 2011 Clove Run will be held on Saturday, August 13, and will consisted of a 10 mile race, a 5 K race and a 1 mile FAMILY FUN Run. The start, finish, awards, refreshments, and entertainment for the races will take place at the Castleton Elementary School, which is located at 78 Scott Avenue, Castleton, NY. The 5K race and the FAMILY FUN Run will be take place in the Village of Castleton, while the 10 mile race will take place in the Village of of Castleton and the beautiful surrounding countryside. We believe that the Clove Run helps to bring the community closer together by providing opportunities for families and friends to socialize in active and healthy ways.

Donations and race registrations help support the race's beneficiary, the CCMS Anchor, a worthy non-profit food pantry in Castleton that assists the area's lowest-income families. Last year's race resulted in a donation of $4,000 to the Anchor. Racers are asked to contribute canned goods for the Anchor
